How to Apply

To be eligible for the bursary, applicants must be fee-paying international students, commencing their studies in 2025 in an undergraduate or postgraduate coursework program.

Course preferencing  

Figuring out what order to put your courses in can be tricky. Decide on your priorities and do your research. Location, student support, work experience options – what are you looking for?

When you submit your course preference list to VTAC, they’ll work out what your highest-placed university offer is. First-round offers are released in late December (after ATARs are available). 

Alternative entry
